This very appealing piece describes an early twentieth century Fourth of July. The band is heard faintly in the distance, coming closer; the band is right next to you; the band is passing, then fading away. A very attractive patrol march for young bands. A winner!

This stunning work celebrates the men and women, past and present, who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces. Jerry Brubaker was the Chief Music Arranger with the United States Navy Band in Washington, D.C. Using mostly original material, Brubaker uses snippets of the various U.S. Armed Forces anthems to bring this wonderful tribute to life. The primary melody of Proudly They Served is singable, respectful, and memorable. The tune comfortably welcomes segments of all the major service songs as they make their appearance throughout. First performed by Rancho Cordova (CA) River City Concert Band, Proudly They Served makes a perfect selection for Memorial Day, Veterans Day, or any concert with a patriotic theme. (4:46).

This narrative setting of Lincoln's immortal Gettysburg Address was commissioned by the United States President's Own Marine Band in early 2009. As beautiful as the speech is on paper, the best way to appreciate Lincoln's musical instinct for timbre, phrasing, and rhythmic patterns is through recitation---and American composer Randol Alan Bass has created a unique musical opportunity for us to do that.

Great Britain has had a National Youth Brass Band since 1952, which caters for players between the ages of 12 and 18 and has produced many outstanding instrumentalists in its distiguished history. An exciting development took place in July 2004 when the first summer course of a new National Children's Brass Band of Great Britain, for players between the ages of 8 and 13, was held in Bromsgrove, Worcester. Renowned cornet soloist and conductor Lynda Nicholson was appointed music director and she commissioned Philip Sparke to write a piece for this inaugural course. The Pioneers was the result. The title refers to the fact that the NCBBGB was starting out on a new adventure but is also a salute to the bicentenary of an expedition by two of the composer's heroes - Meriwether Lewis and William Clark. They were commissioned by US President Thomas Jefferson to find the headwaters of the Mississippi and a route to the Pacific following the Louisiana Purchase in 1803, which doubled the size of USA. They set out, as the “Corps of Discovery,” from Louisville, Kentucky, in May 1804; not only did they succeed in reaching the Pacific through hostile territory, but also found their way back - in three years! The piece is not descriptive of the journey but gives the composer the opportunity to celebrate the 200th anniversary of this amazing feat.

This piece was commissioned by Matsudo Citizen Wind Orchestra for their 30th anniversary concert and premiered by the band conducted by Kenichiro Hasunuma in July 2009. This piece is typical of Satoshi Yagisawa in that it depicts a magnificent spectacle. This one is set in ancient Egypt and is based on the story depicted in the famous film The Ten Commandments (1956, directed by Cecil B. DeMille). One day Moses, who was raised by the rich royal family, found out that he was originally Hebrew. The Hebrews had been forced to live as slaves. Ramses, the prince directly descended from the Pharaoh, envied Moses' strength and popularity. After internal argument Moses decides todeliver the Hebrew from the Pharaoh's tyranny and escape from Egypt with them.The music starts with brilliant royal fanfare and depicts magnificent architecture, the Hebrew people forced into hard labour, and the slaves escaping from the Pharaoh's tyranny. At the climax they are at crisis point, trapped by the sea. Moses waves his staff and the miracle happens; the sea parts and Hebrew people successfully escape. Following on from Perseus - A Hero's Quest in the Heavens, this work Moses and Ramses is another piece written in the dramatic style favoured by Satoshi Yagisawa. Het oude testament verhaalt van Mozes die met zijn volk Egypte verlaat, na zijn strijd met de jonge farao Ramses. De film The Ten Commandments uit 1956 is gebaseerd op dit verhaal. Satoshi Yagisawa zette de beelden van dezemonumentale film om in de karakteristiek dramatische stijl die zo eigen is voor de verfilming. De muzikale beelden geven het koninklijke paleis weer, maar ook de architectonische pracht en praal van het oude Egypte. Ook komen deverlossing van de slavernij en de uittocht aan bod. Natuurlijk met als hoogtepunt dat Mozes de zee opent en het volk door de zee uit Egypte leidt. Een fantastisch spektakel!Von Moses, der nach einem Streit mit dem jungen Ramses mit seinem ganzen Volk, Israel, das Land verliess, erzahlt das alte Testament und der darauf basierende Film Die zehn Gebote von 1965. Satoshi Yagisawa setzte die Bilder dieses monumentalen Films in seinem charakteristischen dramatischen Stil um: Die musikalischen Bilder zeigen den Konigshof, die architektonische Pracht des alten Agypten, das versklavte Volk Israel und natürlich die Flucht mit dem Hohepunkt, als Moses das Meer teilt. Ein prachtvolles Spektakel!Moses and Ramses (Moise et Ramses) est une commande de l'Orchestre d'Harmonie de la ville de Matsudo au Japon, a l'occasion des festivites marquant le trentieme anniversaire de la creation de la formation. La premiere mondiale a eu lieu en juillet 2009. Elle fut assuree par la formation dedicataire, placee sous la direction de Kenichiro Hasunuma. Apres Perseus - A Hero's Quest in the Heavens, Satoshi Yagisawa nous livre une nouvelle œuvre dramatique, flamboyante et epique. L'action se deroule en Egypte ancienne, et suit la chronologie du celebre film biblique Les Dix Commandements (1956), du realisateur americain Cecil B. DeMille. Le jeune Moisegrandit au sein de la riche famille royale egyptienne. Devenu adulte, il decouvre ses origines hebraiques. Or, Pharaon a reduit les Hebreux en esclavage. Le prince Ramses, descendant direct de Pharaon, envie la force et la gloire de Moise. Apres une querelle grave, Moise doit fuir dans le desert. Dans son exil, il decide de delivrer son peuple de la tyrannie de Pharaon et de le mener hors d'Egypte. L'œuvre debute avec une fanfare royale flamboyante qui sonne la grandeur architecturale de l'Egypte. Le peuple d'Israel est condamne a subir les travaux forces ; des esclaves echappent a la tyrannie du Pharaon. Lorsque la musique atteint sa densite maximale, les Hebreux en fuite sont accules devant la mer Rouge. Moise invoque Dieu. Celui-ci lui ordonne de lever son baton au-dessus des eaux de la mer Rouge. Moise obeit et le miracle se produit ; les eaux se divisent en deux pour laisser passer les enfants d'Israel.
